  1. Go to Direct Payroll Reporting, then select Payroll Submission.
  2. Select View Payroll Submission Log.
  3. You can sort any column by selecting the heading.

Filter or export submissions

  1. In the From and To boxes, enter a date range to filter by period.
  2. To export a detailed report for a specific submission, select Export Details.
  3. To print the report, select the Printer icon.
  4. To save a PDF copy, select the Save icon.
  5. When finished, select Close.

If the log doesn’t update

If a submission doesn’t appear or the status doesn’t change:

  • Revenue Online Service (ROS) is experiencing issues
  • Your Windows user account doesn't have permission to access the Sage 50 Payroll Ireland data folder

Ask your IT support to check your data directory permissions if the issue continues.
